Boyer Lake

Boyer Lake is a 438-acre lake located in western Becker County near Lake Park, Minnesota. The public boat ramp is conveniently situated on the northwest shore adjacent to U.S. Highway 10, making it easy to locate and access. This is a lightly developed lake that offers a peaceful paddling experience for kayakers and canoeists, though be aware that the lake is occasionally subject to winter kills, which can affect fish populations between occurrences.

The launch area accommodates most recreational boats up to 12-18 feet, and there are no launch fees (unless a vehicle permit is required by the park). The lake sits within the Buffalo River watershed in a moderately developed area with several islands owned by the state. Nearby recreation opportunities include the Detroit Lakes Wetland Management District and Hamden Slough National Wildlife Refuge, both offering additional paddling and wildlife viewing options for those exploring the region.
